Photo: Keith Ferrara (left) and Todd Jacobson (right) watch as the dealer puts an eight out on the river to give Jacobson a straight.
Keith Ferrera raises to 25,000 on the button and Todd Jacobson calls from the big blind.
The flop comes [Qc10c9h] and Jacobson checks. Ferrera bets 25,000 and Jacobson check-raises to 81,000 total. Ferrera asks Jacobson how much he has behind and Jacobson silently counts out his 233,000 remaining chips.
After some though, Ferrera grabs a stack of 25,000 chips and reraises enough to put Jacobson all-in. Jacobson calls and lets out a sigh when Ferrera shows [10d10h] for middle set.
Jacobson does have several outs with [QsJd] for top pair with an open-ended straight draw. The [As] on the turn is no help to Jacobson, but the [8d] on the river makes his straight and gives him the pot.
Todd Jacobson – 690,000 (69 BBs)
Keith Ferrera – 1,200,000 (120 BBs)
